The fact is that the majority of Supreme Court Justices who ruled in the Roe v. Wade case were Conservative appointees. The Southern Baptist Convention’s former president, W. A. Criswell, even published a response after the ruling where he said: “I have always felt that it was only after a child was born and had a life separate from its mother that it became an individual person ... and it has always, therefore, seemed to me that what is best for the mother and for the future should be allowed.”3
